FOREWORDI take this opportunity to invite you to read the first strategic plan of God Will Make A Way Humanitarian Ministries (GWMAW). The main reasons for writing this strategic plan were to:-

Communicate the purpose of existence of GWMAW. Establish realistic goals for implementation over the next 5 years. Develop a sense of ownership of the ministry by the various stakeholders. Ensure effective utilization of the available resources. Provide a basis upon which to evaluate the performance of the ministry.

Strategic planning is a tedious but necessary process. We want to most sincerely thank those who gave their time to ensure that this plan was completed. The completion of the planning now ushers in the harder stage in the process, which is the implementation of the plan. I pray that God will provide the implementation team with the resolve and resources necessary to ensure that this plan comes to fruition.

I hope that those involved will be committed to implementing this plan because I believe that:-

The objectives of the plan are realistic. The implementation team has been fully involved in the development of the plan. Responsibility for ensuring the delivery of the objectives has been clearly assigned. Written job descriptions and performance reviews for the Board have been provided. The plan has been clearly documented and circulated.

By my signature below, I confirm that the Board of Directors of GWMAW has approved the objectives, activities and budgets described in this strategic plan for implementation over the period 2009 to 2014.

Thank you.

CHAPTER 22.0 BACKGROUND

2.1 Purpose of the Strategic Plan

The purpose of this strategic plan is to outline the anticipated activities of God Will Make A Way Humanitarian Ministries (GWMAW) over the period 2009- 2014.The strategic plan is a statement of intention that we pray God will enable to succeed. The strategic plan provides a basis upon which to evaluate and adjust the activities of GWMAW from time to time during the period.

2.2 The Strategic Planning Committee.

The strategic planning committee comprised of the following:-

Pastor Jackson Ukiru Fred Khaemba Albert Kenyani Dinah Nkoroi Perpetual Ukiru

The drafting sub – committee comprised of the following members:-

Albert Kenyani Fred Khaemba Jackson Ukiru

2.3 The Strategic Planning Process

The strategic plan was developed over a period of one year starting April 2008 and ending March 2009.The start up of the ministry was proposed by Jackson Ukiru in April 2004. During the period May to August 2004, Brother Jackson Ukiru formed a small group comprising of himself, Albert Kenyani and Fred Khaemba who met infrequently to deliberate on the logistics of establishing the ministry.

In September 2004 a Board of Directors for the ministry was formed , which re-constituted itself into the Strategic Planning Committee. This strategic team sat for 5 times during which period they used the Objective Project Planning Approach (ZOPP) to develop the strategic plan .The ZOPP process was facilitated by Mr. Fred Khaemba, who has been involved in the development of strategic plans for many organizations in Kenya.

The strategic planning process was carried out in 5 stages. The first stage involved training members of the planning team in the process of strategic planning. The second stage was the organizational visioning process. The third stage was an environmental scan to identify the organizational challenge and match it to the organizational strengths, weaknesses,

13

Page 14: Strategic Plan of God Will Make A Way Ministries:2009-2014

opportunities and threats (SWOTs). The fourth stage involved establishing organizational objectives that are SMARTER (Single, Measurable, Achievable, Reasonable, Timed, Enjoyable and Reportable). The last stage of the strategic planning process involved drafting, research and revision, which was left to a smaller group that carried out the exercise from December 2008 and completed it in March 2008.

During the strategic planning process many lessons were learnt including:-

(a) Strategic planning is not an unbiblical process since God is Himself the master planner of the universe and of our lives.

(b) Strategic planning is a tedious to and fro iterative process that cannot be hurried.

(c) A strategic plan should be viewed to be a guide rather than a complete and infallible document. A strategic plan is always a document that has not been completed or perfected and which is still in progress.

(d) By participating in the planning process, members of the Board of Directors gained ownership of the strategic plan.

2.4 The Layout of the Document.

This plan sets the agenda for the ministry for the period 2008-2014.

Chapter 1 gives the executive summary.

Chapter 2 provides the background statement.

Chapter 3 summarizes the challenge of the ministry GWMAW .The main purpose of GWMAW will be to make Jesus Christ known in this world through evangelism by proclaiming the Gospel and persuading unbelievers to accept salvation. This chapter outlines the major barriers to evangelism, which this ministry will need to innovate to overcome.

Chapter 4 sets forth the vision for the ministry. Ultimately this ministry is working for a world in which the love of God reigns.

Chapter 5 sets forth the strategy GWMAW is expected to use in order to advance the Gospel over the 5 year period. The strategy calls for GWMAW to be a purpose driven ministry. Full emphasis is laid on evangelism and advancing the Great Commission in Kenya and the surrounding countries. First, in order to serve as an effective evangelistic enterprise, GWMAW will need to build its resource capability. Second, GWMAW will need to engage in the mission of mercy and care to help alleviate extreme poverty and suffering in its constituency. Lastly, the ministry will need to track progress and report it regularly to the Board and sponsoring stakeholders. An account is given on how GWMAW will keep track of its progress and achievement.

The annexure provides estimates of the resources that are necessary over the 5 year period to carry out this work .The chapter gives an outline of a fundraising plan for these resources.

CHAPTER 3

3.0 THE CHALLENGE

Matthew 28: 19

“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.”

3.1 Global Challenges to Evangelism

50% of the 6.3 billion people on earth are yet to receive the Gospel .This means that half of the work that our LORD Jesus Christ commanded is still pending. The Lord Jesus Christ commands us in Matthew 28: 19-20 to take the Gospel to all corners of the earth. Today many barriers stand in the way of implementing this Great Commission. Over 40% of the world’s population that live in the 10 / 40 window is closed to Christianity due to other beliefs. The 10/40 window is the area situated between the Latitudes 100 N and 400 N starting from North Africa and covering the whole of Middle East ,India ,China, Indonesia ,Japan and the other smaller countries .Today persecution of Christians is rife in the 10/40 window.

A major threat to evangelism and the Great Commission is globalization. Touted as a universal equalization or normalization of virtue, globalization is in practice the reverse because of the dominant role of the western media in making the world become more secular, more liberal and un-godlier by promoting the adoption of sub–cultures that are unchristian .These include perverted sexual lives, worship of images and money.

Another serious threat to the Great Commission is extreme poverty. One billion people live below the poverty line, go to bed hungry and struggle to make it to the following day .This extreme poverty has exposed these people to the vagaries of the devil such as manipulation by the political class and the powerful in the society.

3.2 Regional Challenges to Evangelism.

The global threat to evangelism becomes amplified in our East African region double fold because of many factors. First, the 200 million people in the East African region are the poorest on earth. Being extremely poor, they have been manipulated by the ruling class

16

Page 17: Strategic Plan of God Will Make A Way Ministries:2009-2014

into wars that make the region the single point most concentrated with civil wars in the world. Sudan has been at war with itself for the longest period on earth in the recent times (over 20 years) in which 2 million lives have been lost and 6 million people displaced. Only now is peace starting to come back to the country. The tiny country of Rwanda was involved in a genocide in which 1 million people were butchered to death in the 1990’s. The Democratic Republic of Congo, Burundi, Somali and parts of Uganda are currently engaged in civil war .In all these wars, extreme poverty that afflicts over 60% of the people of the region is a contributory factor. It is these poor people who are made to fight and who end up dying in these senseless wars.

Second, many people groups remain unreached and unchurched in the Eastern African region .Pagan worship is still rife in parts of the southern Sudan .Over 20 people groups in Kenya have less than 20% of their population who proclaim that they are Christians .GWMAW classifies population where less than 20% proclaim to be followers of Christ as being unreached. A similar trend is found in Tanzania .Therefore, there is great need for evangelism to reach these final frontiers in Eastern Africa.

Third, evangelism is necessary to counter non-Christian faiths that are on the rise in countries like Kenya .Kenya is home to a significant number of people who profess to faiths that originated from Asia, while devil, pagan and wiccan worship is creeping into the urban areas of the country.

3.3 The Challenge to GWMAW

GWMAW is geographically and strategically well situated to be a significant partner in the Great Commission. The challenge for GWMAW is to collaborate with other ministries to evangelize the unreached of this region. However, to be effective GWMAW will need to devise ways around the barriers that underpin non-Christianity in this region. The main challenge of GWMAW will be how to build its capacity so that it can effectively deliver the Great Commission in this region .This challenge can only be overcome by forging partnerships with the others who are more equipped and are working on the Great Commission.
